"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Texas for now
Well for a while Ive been wanting to get a part time job there so yesterday I went in to turn my application in. It was packed and busy. I went to the side of the register and asked if I could drop this off. The girl was kinda *****y and asked what it was-I said an application which was kinda awkward in front of all the women there. lol
She pointed over to the manager and I ended up talking to 2 managers and they were telling me about the job and asking questions. It went pretty well overall. I was surprised by how serious/professional I stayed giving out bull**** answers like when they asked why I wanted to work there I replied that soon Id be having some free time since Id be finished my cdcs for my job on base(im in the military and Im almost done with my cdcs which are a few volumes youre given to study about ur job then u take a big test on it)
ANyways I thought itd be awesome so work there 10-20 hours a week. Btw back home I worked at one for one day(it was only 5.30/hr plus it was a 30 min drive so it wasnt worth it. So I know what the job will be like. I'll be putting censors on bras and on hangars then putting them out on the floor.
I just have to finish my application and turn it back in(i didnt put anything down for references since I wasnt sure if my p/t jobs back in high school would matter.
Anyways whats everyones input on this? Would it be good or bad to work there?

Oh btw on the way out this hb8-9 was walking in and smiled back at me
:rockon:
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It seems that there would be some heavy lifting somewhere, right, unloading the truck or something?

Just don't let them think that you are doing it to meet girls. If you talk to them again, ask about the employee discount so you can buy stuff for your girlfriend. What they don't want is a creepy horn-ball guy getting them sexual harassment lawsuits and scaring away customers.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Amnbyrd, you told us about a job you applied for.....exactly why?.... It seems that others assume that it's to meet women. I guess I should assume the same.

A man working in a lingerie store? ........Why? Are you gay? It seems like a crossdresser or a homosexual would work in a lingerie store. Makes no sense to me. The fact that you felt awkward about telling the saleslady that you were applying for a job there, in the presence of women should tell you something.

I'd never take any kind of job like that. I'd rather drive a truck, or change tires for a living...you know, something that a heterosexual man would be more likely to do.

What I WOULD do, if I were to take a less-than-masculine job, would be as a shoe salesman. .....Same exposure to women, just as sexual, but you're not playing with lacy panties all day, and you don't risk the same kinds of speculation about your masculinity, and sexual orientation.

They hire GUYS?! WTF's going on?

Just don't gawk too much or you'll look like a pervert.

And don't leave the store with a magazine either! If you want one, order one from online or ebay!

Amen. I would have posted that, but I knew the 14 year old boys would scream, "TROLL!" Posts like this show you why girls like much older guys in most of this world. Heheheh, I see boobs. Hehehe.

Clothing, shoes, hair styling, makeup artists, etc. are the domain of gay men in American malls. The only action you will get by working at such a place is some guy's hands down your pants at lunch.

Another thing. You will be viewed as really weird by any normal female if you are not gay and working in such a place. You will make them very uncomfortable. You are already a creepy guy. Working at such a place will only make you that much creepier.

Yup, ever hear that old stereotype of a the lone guy in the Victoria's Secret saying that he's shopping for his girlfriend/mom/grandmother? Unless you are actually WITH a girlfriend you shouldn't ever go into that store...whether to work or to pick up chicks there. You already said it yourself that you wouldn't get paid that nice anyways....

...and $5.30/hour? That seems a lil under minimum wage. I call shenanigans.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
